The mouse bindings under Epoch are fully programmable and can be made buffer local, via the (define-mouse), (global-set-mouse) and (use-local-mouse-map) functions.

Epoch doesn't support selections yet, and Open Look apparently also uses a different selection (CLIPBOARD instead of PRIMARY) from everyone else on top of that. We do plan on supporting selections in the future. > 3. How about scroll bars -- can they be implemented? They could be implemented, but I would estimate that it would take on the order of a couple months of full time work. We have no plans to implement them. > 4.
